Sweet Savior! in Thy Pitying Grace

Sweet Sav­ior! in Thy pi­ty­ing grace

Thy sweet­ness to our souls im­part;

Thou on­ly Lov­er of our race

Give heal­ing to the wound­ed heart;

Oh! hear Thy con­trite serv­ants’ cry

And save us

Je­su! lest we die.

Long-suf­fer­ing Je­su! hear our pray­er

Who weep be­fore Thee in our shame;

We have no hope but Thee; O spare

Lord

spare us from th’un­dy­ing flame;

Oh! hear Thy con­trite serv­ants’ cry

And save us

Je­su! lest we die.

All we have brok­en Thy com­mand;

Lord

help us for Thy mer­cies’ sake;

Deliver us from Sa­tan’s hand

And safe­ly to Thy king­dom take;

Oh! hear Thy con­trite serv­ants’ cry

And save us

Je­su! lest we die.

We flee for re­fuge to Thy love

Salvation of the help­less soul;

Pour down Thy ra­di­ance from ab­ove

And make these sin-worn spir­its whole:

Oh! hear Thy con­trite serv­ants’ cry

And save us

Je­su! lest we die.
